LJ Security Concerns
Hey all, I've been alerted to some LJ concerns that I thought I'd pass along. According to 
twistedchick : Briefly, SUP. the Russian group that owns LJ, has moved the physical servers that LJ information is on to Russia. Nobody who writes on LJ is now covered by the First Amendment, or any other US law governing freedom of expression. Your information -- all of it -- is under the direct supervision of the Russian government.

There are reports of certain LJs being deleted for political reasons, though I'm not sure if that's been verified or not. Lots of people are deleting their LJs and moving to Dreamwidth. I'm not sure what I'll do with my LJ (like I need something else to worry about?), but I thought others should know.
